Fabrizio La Gaipa, an art loyalist, once had a dream to bring home all the art that once belonged to the town. Collezione La Gaipa is the reality of this dream. His idea was to spread knowledge and passion for history and art, and what began with a simple idea is now a catalogue of some of the best artifacts. This museum has the most authentic collection of art dating back to the Norman era. Pots, jewellery, sculptures, tools and paintings are a broad classification of the intricate collection that the museum holds. Going a step further, imagine staying surrounded by such treasures. Yes, this is the first of its kind museum-hotel. You may have other accommodation plans, but you can’t miss this gallery.
